We STILL Can't Get Over Vanessa Hudgens' Stunningly Sexy High-Slit Dress From The Unicef Gala

We are blown away by Vanessa Hudgens’ one-shoulder look from the UNICEF ball–it may be the sexiest thing she’s EVER worn!

The “Thunderbirds” actress stepped out for the organization’s annual event in Capri, Italy this week wearing a high-slit, one-shoulder gown from designer Alexandre Vauthier that we won’t soon forget. Did we mention its completely backless?!

The glamorous and star-studded LuisaViaRoma for UNICEF fundraiser event featured special performances by Katy Perry and John Legend, as well as a twinning red carpet moment by Heidi Klum and look-alike daughter Leni–but the show-stopper of the night, in our opinion, was definitely Vanessa’s look.

Crediting fashion stylist Jason Bolden as well as fine jeweler Ortaea on an Instagram post August 2nd, Hudgens further proved that it does take a village to create glam this good.

Her fans were quit to react. “Beautiful as always,” fan account Team Vanessa commented. “Gorgeous dress,” wrote another user. We couldn’t agree more!

The 32-year-old beauty frequently collaborates with Bolden on projects; most recently, he styled her in Cult Gaia and Cartier for the Filming Italy Festival in Sardinia, and a super high-slit dress by Alessandra Rich.

Also in attendance at the UNICEF event? Chrissy Teigen, Emily Ratajkowski, Eiza Gonzalez and Orlando Bloom. Sorry to everyone who *wasn’t* Vanessa on the red carpet!
